Initially, your primary focus will be identifying qualified Journeyman Welders and Shipfitters for our shipbuilding operations.
Our Recruiters will own candidate engagement and the recruiting process. You will help make them more effective by ensuring they have a consistent flow of qualified people to contact.

- Categorize and organize qualified candidates into appropriate folders, pipelines, and recruiting stages.
- Provide Recruiters with a consistent flow of qualified candidates for review and outreach.
- Maintain accurate candidate records, sourcing information, notes, and dispositions.

- Track sourcing activity and results so we understand which platforms and searches are producing qualified candidates.
- Conduct limited candidate outreach when requested or when necessary to validate candidate interest or basic information.
- Shift sourcing priorities as hiring needs change.
